(He was called Terius...)
(in the past.)
(Peekaboo!)
(He looks old, and he has a partial hair loss!)
(The shocking confession of Terius)
(Gu Ra's menopause radar sensed...)
(strange symptoms.)
(He's going through menopause.)
(The nation's best musical actors, who are good like Terius, are here.)
(Following that, they started confessing their symptoms.)
You got it too!
(Early stage of menopause)
(The youngest one, are you going through that too?)
(Is this menopause too?)
(It's the incubation period!)
(Everyone was diagnosed with menopause.)
(I don't know now!)
(Nobody knows how their feelings will turn out.)
(We don't know how today's episode will turn out either.)
("Cheerful Middle-Aged Men" begins now!)
How will a gunshot sound like...
when someone logical like me shoot it?
"Logical, Logical".
- It's logical. - All of a sudden?
Listening to that,
my 10 days of holiday got completely ruined.
- Goodness. - That was really...
(Gu Ra sounds like a gangster again.)
- Make it sound convincing. - When a cow sings,
it sounds like, "Suing, Suing".
When they sing it together,
it's "Group litigation, Group litigation!"
If it rains for an hour,
it is "In-Depth 60 Minutes."
- All right. - In-depth...
When Gu Ra hits a chicken,
it's "Be quiet, Gu Ra."
- Goodness. - All right.
The most sensual chicken is...
a naked chicken!
The most sensual vegetable is...
mushrooms.
We started off with some embarrassing dad jokes.
However, Radio Star is perfect...
when four middle-aged men are here.
We are a high-end program...
- that missed Gu Ra! - All right.
- It's Radio Star! - Radio Star.
- It's great to see you all again. - All right.
- I just had a vacation. - Yes, you did.
- You had some time off. - That's right.
- We need all of us. - To get some days off,
we might need to tell them we're going through the menopause too.
It's hurting.
I'm well rested now.
I'm fully charged.
We invited four cheerful middle-aged men.
"Cheerful Middle-Aged Men" special begins now!
With his wavy long hair,
he used to be called Terius.
He's been singing, acting, and starring in musicals.
He got married later in his life.
And that made him weaker, look older, but brought him a son.
The old dad, Shin Sung Woo!
Like Ahn Jae Wook!
He looks like someone from "Romance of the three kingdoms",
the Chinese historical drama.
- I can see that. - I agree.
He's the only guest who shut...
Gu Ra's mouth.
- He only answers in yes or no. - I like that.
Please give us some longer answers today.
The standard of the musical industry,
- Um Ki Joon! - Welcome.
(The standard of the musical industry, Um Ki Joon!)
(Please talk more.)
It's been 29 years since he made his debut.
However, people are not generous.
(However, the public sees things with cold eyes.)
The most memorable work of his is...
"Attack the Gas Station".
It's a movie that was out 20 years ago.
But he's still doing his best in plays and musicals.
He's Kang Seong Jin!
He looks like...
a teacher in the 1970s today.
He looks like a Korean teacher in the 1970s.
- It's his hairstyle. - His style is...
similar to mine today.
Even his glasses are similar to mine.
(His style suits today's theme.)
He is the fixed favorite of the musical industry.
- It's his second time to be here. - That's right.
But why does he look so unfamiliar?
If you just look at him, he looks like he's the moms' favorite.
He looks like a supportive actor of a morning drama.
He's Lee Gun Myung!
- Welcome! - Nice to see you all.
- Hello. - Come in.
- Sung Woo. - Hi.
I wanted to wear a hat, but it wasn't allowed.
By the way,
didn't you just have a baby?
How old is she?
- She's 25 months old. - I heard that.
- Congratulations! - It's all because of you.
- What? - Why?
- It's the program he was hosting. - That's right.
- Because we were invited to that... - It was the program...
that does the interior decoration for guests.
- I remember that. - He asked us about his bedroom.
That is when...
- She was conceived there. - Yes.
He did a great job for us.
It's so nice to see you all.
Please say hello to our viewers, Shin Sung Woo.
Hello, I'll say hello...
- like I'm Jack. - I see.
It's been a long time.
- "Jack the Ripper", right? - Goodness.'
- He became so sly. - I know, right?
Shin Sung Woo has changed.
- Ki Joon, it's your turn. - I see.
Hello.
I play the role of Daniel in "Jack the Ripper".
This is Um Ki Joon.
Can you say that like your character in the musical?
It's been a while!
(Long time no see.)
I know my breakthrough work was a long time ago.
However, I'm doing well even though nobody knows. I'm Kang Seong Jin.
(This is Kang Seong Jin.)
- That's good. - Isn't it the best?
Hello. I'm actor Lee Gun Myung. I sing and dance.
- Hello, Gun Myung. - Welcome.
Sung Woo, so you've been parenting and doing house chores.
- That's great. - Yes, that's right.
How old is your kid?
- He's 13 months old now. - Goodness.
- He's 13 months old. - He must be...
It's the best now.
If you got married a long time ago,
you would have had a grandson that young.
(He's feeling bitter somehow.)
- That's actually true. - You know what I mean.
- As soon as I got here... - I mean...
Older people do talk like this, you know.
That's actually true though.
My friends' kids are doing their military service these days.
When I took some days off lately,
some people told me...
that their life got boring because their kids are all grown up now...
and moved out.
But it must be different for you because your baby is...
- No, it's not like that. - I see.
I thought about it before.
My friends, who got married early,
talk about their kids' joining the military service...
- or getting married. - That's right.
So I thought about enjoying my life when I'm young...
and having kids later in my life.
- But it's hard. - It must be hard.
- That's true. It's a bit difficult. - See?
- It must be hard. - I knew it.
It is surprisingly hard.
(He looks exhausted.)
You were late for the pre-filming interview...
because you were fixing a toy.
You can open the door of this toy,
and when you close the door,
you can ring the bell too.
I think it's some kind of a contact problem.
It was repeating its words over and over again.
It was making a weird noise like this.
So I had to open it up,
- fixed the problem, - Did you get to fix it?
- and I gave it to him. - So you fixed it.
"Daddy's going to work!"
We are the generation of soldering irons.
- That's right. - We sore things with an iron.
When we were young, we learned how to use a soldering iron.
Did you go to a technical high school?
Even though you were not going to a technical high school,
- you've all done it. - That's true.
- I still have it at home. - Right?
- A transistor, right? - Yes, that's it!
- Ki Joon, do you know what it is? - Of course.
He knows.
I'm sure you haven't used a soldering iron though.
- I've used it too. - Really?
Of course. It was like that for everyone.
- It was during class. - Science? Oh, it was Technology.
- It was during Technology class. - I remember that.
People must be so confused now...
because we are talking about the soldering iron forever.
(How come we are talking about the soldering iron forever?)
Right, Sung Woo is...
not doing any music these days.
It's because his way of breathing is not the one of a musician's.
What is the musician's way?
Well, I'm sure Jong Shin knows about it very well.
- You should only think about music. - That's right.
In my opinion,
when you write any songs with that kind of mindset,
- that's the real music. - That's true.
But I get distracted by a lot of things at the moment.
So I'm not putting myself fully into music these days.
- I can't do it. - You think it's impossible.
I think that's a lie.
But Jong Shin is doing his job well.
It works fine for me.
- How different. - It doesn't work like that for me.
I actually wrote another song during the break.
- He always meets people too. - He really does.
But he writes a lot of music.
- That's a musician. - That's right.
When I get sleepy during the recording, I can just sleep.
(He wouldn't even mind taking a nap in the corner.)
When Ki Joon was here last time,
he didn't get along well with Gu Ra.
It wasn't just bad.
(Gu Ra tried his best to make Ki Joon talk.)
(Gu Ra asked him long questions.)
(Yes)
(But he kept giving him short answers.)
But you wanted to thank Gu Ra.
- Of course. - Why?
I could have more airtime thanks to him.
- I see. - Right.
It's so stressful whenever it happens.
It really gets me.
That's why I'm going through my menopause.
(Gu Ra got so stressed that he's going through menopause.)
I had to convince him to speak more.
"Please try this food."
Like I was his mom or something.
But I'm glad he knows how hard I tried.
(Thanks for noticing my work though.)
Seong Jin, you got defrauded lately.
- Is it the side dish store? - It's...
Well, the side dish one was an investment failure.
- So it's not the side dish store. - No.
You've failed and got defrauded?
- Seriously? - The side dish store was...
- What was the business about? - What was it?
Could you roughly tell us what it was about?
Was it about money?
- It's money, but... - I see.
- What about the side dish store? - That's...
It became a problem because it was doing so well.
Since it was doing so well,
we opened 7 stores in Korea in only 2 months.
- So you were being greedy. - That's right.
I should have seen how much I could handle...
and opened more stores, but it happened to quickly.
So all seven stores are closed now.
Every store is closed.
I even got rid of its business name.
You need to have enough supplies to handle it.
Even though you lost all seven stores,
you still know how to cook, right?
I didn't make it.
- I didn't do that job. - Seong Jin didn't do it.
- How could he even open one? - Goodness.
I could have maybe packed my kids' lunch boxes if that was the case.
But I wasn't the one who was cooking.
So I heard your wife is helping you a lot these days.
Well, I didn't know this story could be...
All right. That's true.
- It was... - You can say no if it's not true.
- Seriously, it's actually true. - I mean, you don't have to...
You look like a professor specializing in fraud.
(He looks like a professor specializing in fraud.)
- No, no... - I thought...
you were someone from "Nameless gangsters: Rules of Times".
- I'm... - Choi Min Sik is...
No, it wasn't Choi Min Sik. Who was it?
It was Kwak Do Won's role, I think.
I can't stop thinking about that movie all of a sudden.
(He looks exactly like them.)
It's true that my life is easier thanks to my wife.
I mean, it's because...
I haven't worked much these days.
That's why...
my wife has been helping me.
- She's on a home shopping channel. - That's right!
So even though I was working on stage sets,
- it wasn't... - You had no problem.
- That's right. - By the way,
when you're talking about your wife's job,
your attitude is like you're an observer of her works.
You cross your arms like this when we're talking about her.
"My wife is..." You know what I'm saying, right?
You look like a homemaker.
- That's right! - Right?
- That's really accurate. - That's what I thought.
- My wife is... - That's right!
Because of things my wife sells,
she has to go to work really early in the morning or at night.
Since we moved to Yangpyeong,
it became really far from her work.
So I drive for her.
I mean, I should do what I can do for her.
- That means... - The reason why...
theater is good is because...
- we just need to perform... - That's right.
at the scheduled time.
So I do my best to help my wife whenever I can.
- I try my best. - You're really going for it.
That's good.
I don't think I'm going in the right direction.
- It's okay. - I think it's going weirdly.
So you're doing theater to help your wife?
- I don't think that's what it is. - Goodness.
- Well... - It's fine.
- What is so bad about it? - I help my wife because I love her.
- That's right. - That's why I help her.
It's not true that I'm doing theater to help my wife.
(That's not what I meant.)
- Goodness. - Gun Myung,
I heard you're Yu Jae Seok of the musical industry.
- What does this mean? - Does that mean...
- I host many programs. - I see.
- I host "Korea Musical Awards". - How does it work though?
It's an award ceremony for musicals in Korea...
- that happens every year. - I see.
- He's good. - I got positive reviews.
So I'm doing it every year.
What about MC Ding Dong of the musical industry?
But he is a different kind of MC.
Jae Seok doesn't host such programs.
- I see. - He doesn't do those.
- Jae Seok is... - He would do a good deed.
But Jae Seok wouldn't...
- host an award ceremony. - He doesn't do that.
- That's right. - I think you're somewhat funny.
He has good speaking skills.
- Like MC Ding Dong? - Everyone knows...
(MC Ding Dong has good speaking skills.)
- His choice of words is great too. - I think...
You should call yourself as Kim Dong Gun of the musical industry.
- That's right. - But he's pretty old.
The thing is, Yu Jae Seok doesn't do something like this.
All right. I'll give it up then.
We went to the same university. That's why I actually said so.
What about Kim Seong Ju?
I think that suits you more.
- I'll go with his name. - Yes, that's better.
I think he's like MC Ding Dong.
(Everything ends up with MC Ding Dong.)
- Really? - When you're hosting next time,
take out some flower petals from your pocket and sprinkle them.
If you do that, you'll be more like MC Ding Dong.
I'll do that at the next award ceremony.
(Like this.)
I heard Um Ki Joon was afraid of Shin Sung Woo at first.
- I don't think I was the only one. - We were all afraid of him.
Everyone felt the same.
Everyone in the music industry knows what's he is really like.
But I guess it wasn't the same for the people in the musical industry.
But I'm not too afraid anymore.
- He's really chill. - Yes, he is.
After his son was born,
he seems to secrete an excess of female hormones.
- That's right. - He's becoming an old lady.
I will diagnose it for him.
I'm sure it's been happening for two years already.
(He's been having more female hormones for two years.)
In the past, he usually said...
three sentences during the show in the waiting room.
Seriously, just three sentences.
However, other people can only say three sentences with him these days.
- Really? - Because he talks so much.
I heard there is the same talking amount of everyone's life.
(Really?)
It means we all talk the same amount in our lives.
- I heard it from somewhere. - Does that mean...
That's why I think Seong Jin is amazing.
Seong Jin and I are...
- I think... - No, that's a preconception.
I must be the one who's suffering the most because of that.
People think like, "He must be really funny."
They expect so much from me...
and get really disappointed.
- I don't actually talk that much. - He doesn't talk much in real life.
What do you mean? He talks a lot.
You're the one who talks the most at the outside world.
(It's you.)
Seriously, you talk so much.
- I... - He talks when he's eating...
- and drinking. - It's because...
I forget that I'm actually talking.
(He even forgets that he's talking.)
Seong Jin, you owe a debt of gratitude to Ki Joon.
What does that mean?
There's this alcohol I really like.
Our co-star, Min Young Ki,
- found this alcohol... - Um Yu Min Pub, right?
at Ki Joon's place...
when he visited Ki Joon.
Young Ki asked Ki Joon...
to give it to me, and he actually did.
So I've been feeling grateful about it since.
- What is that alcohol? - What is it?
It's a Japanese whisky called Yamazaki.
- That's cool. - So he gave it to you.
Did you just give it to him or what?
I mean, he said he really likes it.
I still couldn't open it yet.
I'm saving it for the time when there's something to celebrate.
It's been more than a year since I got it from him.
- Then... - Why don't you tell Young Ki...
and give it back to him?
I hid it though.
I hid it where I keep my most precious things.
- You should drink it. - You really should!
- I'm still... - I mean,
you said it's a debt of gratitude.
So if you feel that way, you can always give it back to him.
No, no, I can't.
I should just drink it and forget about it.
But it's so precious to me. I'll just save it for later.
You can even give him some side dishes.
Oh well, I think I should drink it today.
(If he saves it for a longer time, he'll have to give more back.)
You know what Um Yu Min Pub is, right?
What is that?
Are you talking about "Kim Young Ran Act"?
- You should know what this means. - What?
- Is it like a legal action? - Um Yu Min Pub!
Is it a legal action like "Kim Young Ran Act"?
Oh my goodness.
Seriously?
- I was curious about that earlier. - Um Yu Min Pub is...
four famous musical actors.
It's Um Ki Joon, Yu Jun Sang,
- Kim Pub Lae, and Min Young Ki. - Min Young Ki.
And people call them Um Yu Min Pub.
- I... - We were talking about whisky.
So I thought it was a legal action that stops people from drinking.
I was wondering...
- if it was a legal action. - Seriously,
you should ask when you don't know.
That's what you should do when you don't know.
I didn't want to be embarrassed.
(He thought it was a new legal action.)
It looks like Seong Jin has known Tae Hyun for a while.
You said Tae Hyun helped you the most to get married.
- Really? - So...
my wife was...
at Tae Hyun's wedding too.
- But he doesn't seem to know that. - Really?
How did he help?
I actually met my wife at a nightclub.
- I heard that. - I know that story.
My wife likes Tae Hyun a lot.
She's a fan of his.
I think someone told her that Tae Hyun was in our room.
The waiter told my wife about it.
"There's Cha Tae Hyun in that room. Please come with me."
So she came over to our room, but Tae Hyun wasn't there.
But Cha Seung Won was there.
(Instead of Cha Tae Hyun, there was Cha Seung Won!)
- How though? - It turned out...
he was confused Cha Seung Won with Cha Tae Hyun.
So she came over,
and it was actually my birthday.
It was how we hung out back then.
We drank in a room at nightclubs.
Was it when "Break Out" was released?
- It was around then. - That's right.
- It was in 2001. - I see.
It was the January 13, 2001.
I met my wife at a nightclub.
(Congratulations!)
Of course, Tae Hyun wouldn't know what happened.
- What if... - I've heard of this story before.
Because of the waiter's mistake,
she could be my wife.
Even though he didn't know, he did help you with that.
- I've heard that story. - Thank you.
That was really helpful.
By the way, he's the one who helped you the most with that.
Why don't you give him that drink?
(He hates the idea so much.)
- No, I can't! - Why not?
- Just give it to him. - Seriously.
- Why can't I have it? - He loves to drink.
I'll give it back to you in the future.
He really loves to drink.
You can pay your debt like that.
Show your appreciation.
Why would you keep it for so long?
When you get a gift like that, you should drink it soon.
(He's going to be so drunk today.)
You're watching a high-end music program with four middle-aged men...
who are good at musicals and variety shows.
It's Radio Star.
Today's theme is, "Cheerful Middle-Aged Men".
Let's begin!
Four of you are in the same musical, "Jack the Ripper".
- Yes. - Is it true that...
Sung Woo is the director?
- Yes, somehow. - That's amazing.
I heard you're getting even older...
after taking that job.
- It must be a lot of work. - Goodness.
- He'll get older and older. - I went...
to the salon today, and they found I have a partial hair loss.
- Really? - What?
- Yes. - It is really hard.
The most stressful thing is...
that I'm working with the nation's best musical actors.
To convince them, I have to have the right reason,
or I won't be able to do anything.
Who's the most difficult one to convince?
Well, it's...
- It's... - I think it's Ki Joon.
- Ki Joon, you must be the one. - Ki Joon is...
Who's the reason you got the partial hair loss?
He's looking at Ki Joon a lot.
- Who made that happen? - No, no, it's not him.
Who's the most difficult one among these three though?
(He's asking once more!)
It's Um Ki Joon.
(He said it's Ki Joon!)
- I knew it! - It was given!
- It must be him. - He made you lose hair.
(He's feeling dizzy.)
He doesn't listen to you.
Well, he doesn't listen to be because...
he tries too many ad-libs.
- Why is it bad? - Do I?
I've been giving you a look quite often.
I do that at rehearsals, but I don't do that at real shows.
Do it at the real shows too.
I used to do that in the past, but not these days.
I give him a look like this.
(Don't do ad-libs. Stop it.)
(Ki Joon is avoiding it.)
It has happened a lot.
(I don't know what happened.)
Gun Myung said...
it's funny when Sung Woo is...
holding back his anger.
Yes, it is. Why do you think he's losing his hair?
What does he hate?
- Ad-libs. - Ad-libs are...
You know how much I hate it.
I call them Poop Actors.
- What? - I've said that before here.
- Kim Soo Ro does ad-libs a lot. - No!
No, you don't have to mention his name.
- He's not a bad actor, you know. - All right.
(When he was here last time,)
(he said...)
(Kim Soo Ro is Poop Actor...)
(because he ad-libs a lot)
I did say his name as an example.
- Seriously? - No, no.
- He really hates ad-libs. - I see.
You know how much I hate it too.
- Please tell him I hate it. - Right...
You can tell him that.
(Please help me.)
- Did you hear that? - It's not that.
It's because of...
Seong Jin's career in the past.
People think he's funny.
The audience think that way about him before the show.
It's their preconception.
Since everyone assumes that, I thought instead of using that,
I thought about taking a more serious approach.
- I see. - I'm very serious these days.
He's too serious that he doesn't know when to be funny.
He's not funny now.
- That's stressful too. - He's not funny anymore.
- I'm about to lose it these days. - That would be hard.
I read reviews online.
"Seong Jin wasn't good. He was boring."
(His heart is wounded.)
Was I wrong then?
No, no. It's not that.
Then you should say a lot of witty impromptu lines today.
No, ad-libs...
- You can say those on our show. - are terrible.
You should do your ad-libs here.
- Wait, on your show? - Of course.
- I got it. - That's right.
- Your voice should be in that tone. - Exactly. That's right.
- You should say the lines here. - I understand now.
You want me to make a mess here.
(He has already adjusted himself.)
- He's really funny on our show. - Think of this as a bathroom.
- Okay. I got it. - Make a mess as you please.
He must have a lot of bottled-up feelings.
(He's always ready for his improvisation.)
These actors have a group chatroom on the instant messenger app,
but Um Ki Joon is the only actor who is not in this chatroom.
- He knew about it. - You're not in our chatroom?
Did you leave the chatroom? Or did they not invite you to begin with?
- I wasn't in the room at all. - Not at all?
- I'm sure they called you in, - Okay.
but you declined to be in the room, right?
- Why is that? - You've never used the app, right?
- What? - You've never used it, right?
It's impossible to decline it.
- He's never used the app. - No.
His phone number begins with "011".
How could his phone download such an app?
Hey, can I be in the room with this?
- No. - Please explain this to me.
- His phone is really outdated. - He doesn't know about the app.
- Exactly. - Of course, he doesn't know.
(Impressed by his 2G phone)
Did you leave the chatroom when they invited you?
I told them not to invite me.
- Did you tell them in advance? - Yes.
Why did you tell them not to invite you?
It's great to have some things,
- it's great to not have some stuff. - That's right.
- I can understand that. - Not everything is good.
Talking about work during your free time is a bit hard.
- That's right. - You must read unwanted things.
- I must read all the messages too. - It's a hassle.
- If I don't read them, it's rude. - Exactly.
There's no guarantee that your relationship with them will last.
I'm not sure about that.
I can't agree to that.
- You should sign up for the app. - Right.
You don't know what it is.
Or someone else should ask questions about the app.
(It's fun to tease him.)
- Excuse me. I'm fine. - Yes?
- Okay. - All right.
Everyone is on that app.
Our group chatroom is as big as 46m².
Okay.
Is it that big?
- How many people live there? - We bought a lot to expand it.
(You should have a housewarming party once you expand.)
I suppose you don't like to exchange texts via text messages.
- No, that's not it. - Why not then?
Are you in the group chatroom for Um Yu Min Pub?
- I'm sure he's in that room. - Yes, I am.
- But... - He just doesn't like these people.
He just doesn't like this group.
I guess he doesn't like the group.
When I'm in group chatrooms, it feels so awkward to leave...
- once the project has ended. - That's true.
And when you look at these group chatrooms,
a lot of people accidentally write something in those rooms.
That's right.
These days, you can delete your messages.
- Right. - I'm curious about deleted texts.
- That's why it was made first. - Why did they make it?
But if someone reads it, it can't be deleted.
- That's right. - Really?
You must delete it as soon as you write it.
- No one must read the message. - I didn't know about that.
If I check the chatroom and see someone deleted a message,
- I'd be curious what it was about. - Right.
(Be careful of the group chatroom at all times.)
- Sung Woo. - Yes?
Did Mickey Mouse show up on stage out of nowhere?
That...
- A long time ago, a Japanese fan... - Was that the underwear?
- gave me a cute pair of underwear. - I was right.
- There was Mickey Mouse... - Okay.
- in the middle of the underwear. - Mickey Mouse was there.
My character has one last pose to do during the curtain call.
- There's this cool pose I do. - That's right.
- That's when my fly was ripped. - Goodness.
My fly was open.
And Mickey Mouse looked like this.
(Peekaboo!)
I had eye contact with...
three of the audience in the front row.
(Their eyes met.)
- Mickey must've had cabin fever. - I mean...
(He took a peek.)
Back then...
- He was curious who came. - I was doing a show back then.
(Laughing)
I received the underwear as a gift.
- I thought it was cute. - Out of all days,
- Exactly. It was that day. - he wore it that day.
He probably doesn't wear that often.
- Exactly. - I don't wear one with Mickey.
It would've been better if it was Lion King.
Their average age is 48 years old.
- That's the average? - Yes.
- The average age is 48. - Right.
- I'm sorry. It's all because of me. - Seong Jin is 48 years old.
- You're 48. You're 50. - Yes.
- That's right. - What about you, Ki Joon?
- I'm 44. - Ki Joon and I are the same age.
- I hiked up to 48. - It's 48.
- And... - He's a bit old.
Sung Woo. Don't you have presbyopia now?
- Don't you? - Of course, I do.
I got that in my early 40s.
- I felt it three years ago. - That was late.
- That's considered late. - I see.
When I went out for drinks, I ended up drinking a lot.
The next day, I felt terrible, so I wanted a hangover drink.
- It was a new brand. - It doesn't work anymore.
I thought it was new and looked at the ingredients.
I couldn't read what it said.
You didn't know what was in it.
"What is this? Why can't I read this?"
- It was really hard to read. - How far can you see?
Having presbyopia is really tiring.
I can't read this clearly now.
Ki Joon, don't you think you're farsighted too?
I can't read it up close.
Right. Farther it gets, easier it is to read.
But young people can read it.
You have presbyopia too.
- You have it too. - You have it now.
I can...
Three years, when I first felt it,
in front of other people...
(Trying his best)
I tried so hard to overcome it.
- I couldn't. - By the way,
I do think Sung Woo's eyes are getting bad indeed.
He made a huge mistake.
- What's that? - What is it?
- "Did you shave your head?" - These days,
Kim Seo Hyung is really popular.
- What did he write on there? - No way.
After watching this, Sung Woo wrote,
"Did you shave your head?"
"What a presence. You look so cool."
It was shot from a distance. You could only see her silhouette.
- "No way. I didn't shave my head." - "I didn't shave my head."
I was watching the drama on my phone.
She is known for her passion. She's really zealous.
When I saw that, I was impressed.
- It does look like she shaved it. - I thought if she had gone with it.
I wrote that she looked incredible with her shaved head.
If she puts up her hair this tightly,
she might have gradual hair loss.
She will get it if she ties her hair this tightly.
(Nothing is wrong with her hair.)
This is about Seong Jin.
Do you have menopause these days?
He's the preacher for menopause.
I'm the preacher for menopause.
- Yes, that's right. - What's that?
- He wants everyone to have it. - I'm the preacher for menopause.
- Tell me your symptoms. - He welcomes this.
- Well, as for me, - He's more of a detector.
my hobbies have changed.
You don't like golf now, right?
Back in the days, I used to like sports such as baseball and golf.
- Do you not play baseball? - These days, I grow flowers.
You have it. You have menopause now.
- This is definite evidence. - Gosh.
You got it.
- You grow flowers. - I'm interested...
- in plants now. - You have it now.
- That's great. - If your hobbies...
become less active, does it mean you have menopause?
That's not it.
- Emotional level could've changed. - Do you...
- Is that you? - Quiet people can become active.
I was just curious.
This happened to you too. It happened to you too, right?
- No, no. - No.
He was just curious.
- When you play baseball, - I still like the outdoors.
you run and use energy. Do you feel that's pointless?
Here's a thing about me though.
Recently, I moved to Yangpyeong.
The nature. Where did you go? Where did you live before?
I used to live in Bundang.
- I moved there from Seongnam. - Then you have a mild case of it.
- Don't you like nature now? - I even moved there.
That's right. I became very environmentally friendly.
I like tending my garden.
- Exactly. - I like these activities more now.
- Don't you talk to birds now? - Just like that?
I call them every morning.
(Symptom: Talking to birds)
Do you even cry when you watch variety shows?
- A nameless singer comes to a show. - Right.
And people try to guess who it is by listening to his or her voice.
- "I Can See Your Voice". - "I Can See Your Voice".
- I understand. - That show makes me cry a lot.
- It's the drama. - Yes.
It's the drama of the stories.
Usually, I don't cry a lot.
I didn't cry a lot.
I wanted to cry when my father passed away,
but I was upset because I couldn't cry.
- But now... - But now,
I cry a lot when I see drama within these shows.
It is true that I cry often now.
(He seems to understand.)
- Just like Seong Jin, - Okay.
I can't hold my tears when I see a moving scene.
- You're still like that? - Yes.
You didn't cry before though?
- How could a rocker cry? - Rockers can't cry.
- But these days, I cry. - He made people cry.
(Exploding with tears)
Do your tears drop on top of your beard?
I would be watching a documentary on TV with my wife.
That's right. It makes you cry a lot.
(His wife gives him space.)
When I cry, my wife leaves me alone.
Remember the scene when Anderson is taking Polly?
When I'm watching the scene in the audience,
I'm the only one who cries.
I also watch that scene because...
it's my scene after that scene. That's why I always have to...
watch that scene.
- I cry a lot too. - Right.
I go out when the scene is about done on purpose.
- You know what? - He cries too.
I just mentioned about the menopause.
Everyone got so into this subject.
I don't think I have it.
(I don't think I have menopause.)
- You don't have it. - Exactly.
I don't think I have it.
I knew from the beginning that you didn't have menopause.
I heard that Ki Joon cries very often too.
- Really? - Ki Joon cries a lot.
It looked like he was heartless, but I guess not.
- People think that a lot. - Seriously.
- He cries a lot. - I had no idea.
I heard that he has his own button for crying.
It has to do with my mom.
- Your mother? - Recently, I was on a play...
with Kang Bu Ja. It was called "2 Nights 3 Days with Mom".
Before the play, I would say hello to her.
When I go to her to say hello after the play,
my eyes would be swollen.
I see. Really?
He cries like that even for our show too.
- I see. - That's right.
- When it's time to go home, - Is that so?
his eyes are so swollen.
- Is that so? - I didn't know that.
I have to shoot at him when he's crying.
It's a bit iffy to shoot at him.
What choice does he have?
- A long time ago... Guns... - But...
- would misfire time to time. - Okay.
There are two buttons in case of a misfire.
If the gun doesn't go off when you fire for the first time,
you have to trigger the second one.
Then the second one would go off.
When I pulled the first trigger, it misfired.
I pulled the second trigger.
It went off with a loud bang.
I killed him.
Then I put the gun in my holster,
and the gun went off in my holster.
- The misfire earlier... - "Oh, no."
"My leg!" Did you go like this?
I was really cool. I was cool when I shot him.
And this happened.
(Startled like a lame guy)
I looked like a fool.
After that, his acting would change.
- He'd start limping. - He'd be limping.
- You have to improvise then. - But the thing is...
it's toward the end. I can go out while limping like this.
The audience might think that the ending was weird.
"How could it end like that?"
"What's wrong with that guy?"
Gun Myung, you said actors in the waiting room at musicals...
don't talk about their projects,
but they talk about skin treatment, scalp, and makeup.
You said that people usually talk about these things.
It's a bit weird to discuss this after talking about menopause.
In the dressing room, the average age is 48.
People around that age would gather around.
Then they talk about what's good for preventing hair loss...
or good health supplements.
These are the regular topics...
in the dressing room.
Ki Joon, you also put a lot of effort in taking care of your skin.
I only spend money on...
- food, alcohol, and my skin. - Right.
We've gone abroad together to perform for our show.
Whenever we go abroad, he does this. There's a product he always uses.
He goes over to that section and buys a ton of the products.
(He goes over to that section and buys a ton of the products.)
My wife joined me...
on that trip for the show.
She said, "Ki Joon takes good care of his skin."
"But why don't you do it?"
"You should apply them too."
She scolded me a lot.
But you're a rocker.
That's what I told my wife.
"How can a rocker apply more than two cosmetic products?"
(Feeling proud to be a rocker)
- You said it with a straight face. - Or he should've said,
"A rocker should apply only one."
- What did you buy? - You shouldn't apply anything.
- A rocker shouldn't. - But still.
What do you apply on your face?
- I apply toner and lotion. - Toner and lotion.
- Apply the combined one first. - Right. The combined one.
- Apply another one. - That's right.
- There are many good products. - What?
- That's a nice trick. - A lot of them are combined now.
- That's right. - Then...
you can try that while keeping your pride intact.
I can't apply more than two products.
- Apply that and essence. - That's how his personality is.
Ki Joon said that...
Lee Jae Myung... No.
- Lee Jae Myung? - I'm sorry.
- Lee Jae Myung? - How could you mix them up?
Are you going to talk about him again?
According to Lee Gun Myung's story...
(All of a sudden, they're reminded of Gyeonggi Province.)
I think it's a mix of two names.
- Right. - Don't you think so?
According to Lee Gun Myung's story,
Ki Joon's dressing room is like a pharmacy.
- It's not medication, right? - He must carry a lot of stuff.
- You carry multivitamins, right? - That's right.
What do you take? I take about 10 health supplements.
- I take about the same. - List them.
Should we guess each other's supplements?
- I'm sure you have this product. - Do you have that?
- Do you have omega-3? - I have it.
- Supplements for liver and eyes. - Lutein?
- Yes. I have one for multivitamin. - What else?
Do you take folic acid tablets?
- You haven't taken that one yet. - You haven't?
- Do you take that? - Yes, you have to take that.
Tell you what.
When I go to a clinic,
they run a test with my hair.
They run the test to see...
- what your body needs. - They check what you need.
That's how I take my supplements.
This is much better.
- Don't take them randomly. - Okay.
- A long time ago, I tried that. - Okay.
I went to Japan to perform a show after taking suggested supplements.
I had to wear gloves for my show.
The gloves weren't clean, you know.
When I had to wear the gloves, I took off a scab.
- It bled a little. - Okay.
I put on the gloves and performed my show.
It started to fester.
That's why after that, I don't go to those clinics.
- What clinics? - Clinics that run the hair test.
Do you think it happened because of the test?
- Yes. - My goodness.
- They said not to take vitamin C. - You have a weird system of trust.
- They said not to take vitamin C. - Okay.
- It's hypochondria. - You're just worried.
- You just need a health drink. - What? My goodness.
Why would you say that?
- This is a fact. - Goodness.
I was wondering what he meant.
I feel this whenever I watch the commercial.
They should pronounce "fact" correctly.
- Why do they say, "pact"? - In Korean...
For commercials, they have to pronounce things in Korean.
You must say, "fact", not "pact".
Congratulations on your degree in English.
I don't think it was the clinic's fault.
- What a great member. - He majored in English.
He's the best member in the world.
(Mispronouncing on purpose)
Gun Myung is trying to take good care of his health,
so he's taking 5 supplements and 6 packs of juices.
- He takes a lot of stuff. - I do drink 6 packs of juices.
- 6? What do you drink? - You drink 6?
- I drink pear and bellflower juice. - Pear and bellflower juice.
- Onion juice for hyperlipidemia. - Onion juice.
- Those are all healthy. - I eat red ginseng too.
- I drink garlic juice too. - I see.
- All combined is enough for a meal. - You drink a lot of juices.
That brings me to my point.
Can someone combine all of these juices...
and make it into one? Whether it's medication or not?
- But it must be bad for your liver. - Exactly.
- It's bad for your liver. - It's probably not good.
- This is... - I should drink one for liver too.
- You should have the healthy drink. - Drink arrowroot juice.
The one Jong Shin said?
"Is this a fact?"
- Does everything end with that? - It all ends with that bear drink.
(It all ends with that bear drink.)
Okay. Seong Jin, did you recently have a procedure?
What did you do?
- Did you remove something? - It was for the fat under my eyes.
- Did you remove it? - It was a fat transfer procedure.
It's called the lower eyelid surgery.
- Didn't it go well? - Yes, it did.
- It doesn't look that obvious. - It looks nice and clear.
Before the surgery, I used to have...
sunken eyes.
- What are sunken eyes? - The eyes are submerged.
It's the opposite of protruding eyes.
- I see. - That's why...
- this part... - You could've just said that.
Why did you have them sunken eyes?
Okay.
Did you pull them out?
It just means you had fat in your lower eyelid, right?
- I wanted it to be resilient. - Are you happy with the surgery?
I wanted it to look natural.
But I got this procedure not so long ago.
I'm still in recovery though.
I see.
Why did you ask me about this boring topic?
- No, don't be offended. - No, no.
- We're just talking here. - It feels like...
Do you think talking about drinking juices was entertaining?
- That's right. - How is that entertaining?
- It was just a conversation. - Is today's special about health?
("Health Special: Middle-aged Men, Be Healthy")
Seong Jin is unexpectedly sensitive.
You said it's uncomfortable when others treat you to a meal.
- I can't do that. - Can you give us an example?
When we go to a restaurant,
even if I go there with my senior actors,
I have to pay...
because if I don't, I can't order what I want...
in case I impose on the other party.
- A while ago... - In case I impose on them.
I'd rather pay for the bill...
- and order whatever I want to eat. - You want to choose your food.
- You'd rather choose the food. - Yes.
- I like having a generous amount. - You must order a lot.
- I get your point. - That's true.
What if you know for sure that your senior will buy the meal,
but there is a lot of food you want to eat? What do you do?
I just hold back.
After the meal is over...
- I'd order. - He is sensitive.
- "Can I order this?" - He is sensitive indeed.
- I'd say that. - You can't say that?
- I can't say that. - But I would just ask.
I just hold back. I hold back.
When I come back, I can order what I wanted before.
- I would ask if I can order. - I'm sensitive.
- I understand his personality now. - That's right.
A long time ago...
- You're sensitive, but kind. - I got it now.
Exactly. A junior of mine...
I went to an after-work meal one day.
This junior asked if he could order this brand of sake.
- Who said that? Isn't it expensive? - That's sake.
- It cost 200 dollars. - What?
- I asked if he had to drink this. - Everyone knew Gu Ra was paying.
So I was like...
"I'll pay for this bottle." He said that.
- "I'll pay for this bottle." - Yes.
I was flustered.
I just said I would buy that too.
I wasn't happy then.
- He still paid. - I didn't feel good.
- I was going to pay for the meal. - And...
- But when the bill comes out... - If he only paid for the drink,
- it would look weird. - Definitely.
I didn't feel good.
And you drank it up.
(Whatever!)
Ki Joon, you don't eat food that invigorates your health.
- Everything is about their health. - Yes.
- Yes, it's all about the health. - Right.
This is quite unusual.
You don't eat the whole chicken soup, but you eat a whole chicken?
I don't eat the soup because it's bland and there's lack of flavors.
- Is that so? - To cook the whole chicken,
they simmer the chicken less than the soup.
- They cook the soup for hours. - Right.
There's whole chicken soup with cordyceps in Yangpyeong.
We should go there together once.
- It has cordyceps in it. - Cordyceps?
There's no way the soup would taste bland.
I don't like the flavors of medicinal herbs.
- He doesn't like medicinal food. - Right.
This is how things are in our dressing room.
(A chatterbox with information about health)
Ki Joon's dream is...
to do a project for romantic comedy.
I want to do a role like yours, Tae Hyun.
That's his dream,
but he's never thought about doing a romantic movie or drama.
- Are those two different? - I mean...
- You mean "My Sassy Girl". - Those two are different genres.
- You mean Tae Hyun's role, right? - That's right.
The one without any love scenes, right?
- Yes. - Something light, right?
- He's very particular. - You don't want serious romance?
- No. - You don't want to do that.
- I don't want anything serious. - I see.
You don't want projects Sung Woo was in, right?
- That's right. - I want to do those roles too.
- I want to do fun roles too. - It'd be serious romance with him.
- But that's not what you want? - Right.
You want an entertaining role, right?
An entertaining role?
- You want entertaining roles? - It has to be funny.
- Like his roles? - Yes.
You have a clear preference.
- He knows what he wants or not. - He's very clear about it.
Why do I feel like...
- you had a romantic role before? - Right.
It's been a very long time since I last had a female partner.
I always killed people.
- That's right. - He always kills people.
He always does.
- It'd be bad for partners. - Right.
- It's better to be alone. - Right.
He's not going to kill them.
Even if he has a love interest, if he shows up,
people would think the love interest would be killed.
People would think that.
- He did a lot of scary roles. - That's why. I see.
Sung Woo, you've never come out of your house empty-handed?
It happened when I got married.
It's the trash.
Don't you all take the trash bag when you come out?
Usually, a lot of dads do it.
- Right. - Dads do that.
It's different for every household.
I just need to take it out when my wife asks me to.
(I just need to take it out when my wife asks me to.)
- I didn't know you were wise. - Yes.
- My wife... - She doesn't tell you to do that.
Luckily, my wife...
doesn't like it...
- when I throw out the trash, - Really?
- so I don't throw it out. - This is what it comes down to.
- It's the wife's decision. - That's right.
- Men... - Don't you support it?
Of course.
- "What are you talking about?" - Isn't that obvious?
"I must do my share at home too!"
You could've said that, but you support it.
My wife tells me to do that, so I must follow it.
Has this ever happened to you?
I had to come out of the basement parking lot...
to reach the space to throw out the trash at my apartment complex.
- Really? - Yes.
I took the trash to the basement.
I put it under the passenger's seat.
After going to my studio, I still had the trash.
I didn't stop to throw out the trash.
When I got out after my practice,
- then... - That happened to me a lot.
- Where do you throw it out then? - Here's the problem.
- It starts to smell. - Right.
- I can't stand it. - I see how it could happen.
- It says, "Hanam" on the bag. - Luckily, I...
- I can't throw that out. - Right.
I would put it next to the wheel.
When I'm going on, I put it back in the car.
- I'd go home and throw it out. - I see.
- I had it with me the whole day. - That's something else.
Gosh, Jae Myung is...
- It's Gun Myung. - It's Gun Myung.
- Listen. Come on. - What was that?
- Do you support him? - Are we talking about politics?
It's because I've done a show with Mr. Lee Jae Myung.
Gun Myung...
is great at bringing up new topics.
- He also hosts a show. - That's right.
- You are indeed a host. - That's right.
He's not a governor.
We had the provincial election last year.
I'm sorry.
(He's a model citizen who takes out the trash properly.)
Sung Woo, you criticize a lot for excessive wrapping.
My wife orders a lot of stuff online.
She ordered a tiny pacifier or a small bottle for our baby.
- He did mean excessive wrapping. - It's tiny like this.
They can just wrap it like this,
but they would put it in a box and put the box in another box.
There would be another big box.
I mean you don't need that much to pack something this big.
I am the one who has to take out the boxes.
- That's right. - I see.
Sung Woo, did you give Seong Jin...
something you designed...
- as a present? - My goodness.
Sung Woo isn't the type.
He hates excessive wrapping, but...
(Ta-da)
Did he say anything?
That's excessive wrapping.
This is the epitome of excessive wrapping.
(Excessive wrapping)
That's...
This is the epitome of excessive wrapping.
I will explain.
I did that...
because it's inconvenient to walk around...
with an apple in your hand.
Then it will get dirty.
For the purpose of having one after a meal...
or giving someone a present,
a big box of apples won't do.
- That's why I thought... - You could have put it in a bag.
it would be nice to pack it.
Someone has to throw away these boxes.
Seriously.
You should have thought about that.
I got three boxes for a pacifier.
(He becomes upset.)
Ki Joon, you are the only guest who is single.
That's why he is bored with this line of talk.
There are parts I understand...
and parts I don't understand.
You are learning a lot today.
Are you thinking,
"Gosh, I shouldn't get married"?
- It makes you happy. - He heard good things, too.
On SNS, you saw...
"50 Quotes You Must Read When You Prepare to Get Married"...
and pressed like.
- Did you really do that? - I think I did.
Is there someone you want to marry?
Why did you read all 50 quotes?
It's about time I prepare myself.
That's right. He is at that age.
It would be nice if you have someone.
- You were born in 1976. - We were born in the same year.
Then all of your friends must have gotten married.
- Most of them have. - I think most of them have.
Among Um Yu Min Pub, you are the only one who is single.
- That's right. - That's right.
Ki Joon is the only one who is single.
Even Won Ki Jun got married.
What?
What are you saying?
- Won Ki Jun? - Seriously.
Even Won Ki Jun got married.
When Jun Sang and I meet up,
we talk about how we hope Ki Joon marries someone nice.
Do your friends introduce you to women?
Maybe you don't like that.
- Oh, they are all talks. - They are all talks.
Ki Joon does well on his own.
He does well on his own.
Women adore men...
like Ki Joon.
- That's right. - He will do well on his own.
(There is no need to worry.)
Sung Woo's nickname is "Shin's Dispatch".
He must have quick wits.
When he is in musicals, he notices a secret relationship first.
Can you give us an example?
- Did anyone get caught? - Many did.
Did anyone get married?
Yes. Sung Min of Super Junior did.
(Sung Min and Kim Sa Eun)
I knew about their relationship from the start.
Did you officiate their wedding?
No, I didn't. Back then,
- I wasn't married. - He wasn't married.
He simply noticed that they were dating.
Here is the thing.
Before actors perform,
they gather to put their hands together.
I saw them come to the stage at the same time.
You notice those things.
"Look at that."
After that, I watched them more intently.
They would get things for each other...
such as water.
Are you 100 percent accurate?
Pretty much.
- I see. - Yes.
Now, Ra Mi Ran is a star.
- Ra Mi Ran. - She was...
in "Dracula, the Musical" with me.
She married my manager.
- That's right. - That's right.
Did you notice their relationship?
I only noticed it...
when other people did.
Now, costume crew...
helps actors with water...
and costumes.
They wait for the actors.
- It didn't exist back then. - No.
Managers did all the work.
Because you sweat,
you need to drink water as you prepare for the next scene.
You can't sing the next two songs without a drink of water.
However, my manager was missing.
"Where in the world is he?" I looked around and saw...
he was giving water to Mi Ran.
(He was looking after Mi Ran.)
At first, I got mad at him.
"What do you think you are doing?"
"That's not where you should have been!"
He hung his head.
Then I asked, "How long has it been?"
He said, "It has been a while."
"Is everything going well?"
He said, "Yes."
It must be your joy of starring in a musical.
He loves it.
Even in the ensemble I currently work with...
Are some people dating?
- Yes, I notice their exchanges. - I see.
- I notice them. - Are some people dating?
Yes, some people in the ensemble are.
- I am serious. - Do you keep it to yourself?
- Are your lips sealed? - Yes.
Other people in the musical have no idea.
- No. - I had no idea.
I bet many people become couples at musicals.
It's inevitable.
They are together from morning to night.
They practice together.
Ki Joon, you will find someone soon.
He could have found someone a long time ago.
- That's right. - Seriously.
He doesn't want someone in the musical industry.
I don't want to touch my family.
(That's his motto.)
Are you saying those couples touched their family?
He doesn't want to date a colleague.
- I see. - He only sees them as colleagues.
Sung Woo, you had a kiss scene...
in an MBC drama that was criticized for being...
- too sexy. - I did?
We will see a footage.
You had it with Kim Hye Soo.
Do we have a footage?
- I want to see it. - We do have a footage.
- I want to see it. - What should we do?
Let's take a look.
There is nothing wrong with watching an MBC drama.
- It's a drama. - We could watch it on demand.
I want to watch it.
It will make people watch the drama again.
- What is that? - My goodness.
- That startled me. - They are practically biting.
(The shocking footage captivates their attention.)
(Let's take this to the end.)
(The middle-aged men's conversation...)
(turns sexier.)
(Don't go further!)
(The MCs are persistent.)
(The sexy Part 2 is coming soon.)
- It's a drama. - We could watch it on demand.
I want to watch it.
It will make people watch the drama again.
Good things come to those who wait.
(Sung Woo and Hye Soo are a couple in the drama.)
I think good things come to those who don't wait.
- What is that? - My goodness.
- That startled me. - They are practically biting.
(We won't reveal more since we are a bit embarrassed.)
What's the title of this drama?
"Home Sweet Home".
- "Home Sweet..." - "Home Sweet Home".
"Home Sweet Home".
(Everyone becomes absorbed.)
- Gosh, it's... - It's very sexy.
Seriously.
- Is it because it's Hye Soo? - When did it air?
2010.
I can't believe this aired back then.
(My goodness.)
Close your mouth.
(The romance is so thick in the air that they need masks.)
Close your mouth.
(Captivated)
(Too much love makes a bowl fall.)
They dropped a bowl. They dropped a bowl.
That technique of changing the scene with a dropped bowl is...
Seriously.
People who worry a lot go,
"It will be a disaster if they step on glass."
The thing is,
that scene was taken before we decided...
what the rating should be.
I asked the director,
"How far should I take it?"
He said, "Let's take this to the end."
- The director said that. - Yes.
I was like, "What should I do?"
"Let's see how it goes."
I asked Hye Soo, "What should I do?"
She said, "Let's see what happens."
- I see. - That's how that scene...
- came to be. - The veteran actors did their work.
I didn't know it would turn out that way.
Did you know we were talking about that scene?
- No, I didn't. - Were you in...
another scene like that?
(He got caught.)
- I knew it. - I guess he was.
Most people would have gone, "Gosh, I remember that."
- That's a shocking scene. - There must be something else.
How could he not remember a scene like that?
- There must be something else. - It's not like that.
When you are in romance dramas, you get a lot of kiss scenes.
That wasn't taken...
as a kiss scene.
The director left everything up to the two actors.
There is no mouth-to-mouth kiss.
They just kiss other areas.
Seriously.
I wonder when they would have a mouth-to-mouth kiss.
That scene was supposed to show...
how happily the couple is married...
- in the drama. - They are deeply in love.
It makes the viewers feel their love...
better than a typical kiss scene.
What happens to the couple at the end of the drama?
- Hye Soo and I... - The broken glass is foreshadowing.
Am I wrong?
- You know well. - I knew it.
Seong Jin, when you go to a toilet,
you are active...
and daring.
I take all of my clothes off to use the toilet.
It's quite inconvenient to use the toilet...
outside the home.
I use the toilet at home if I can help it.
- Do you take off your pants? - Yes, I do.
When you use the restroom at MBC, do you put your pants up?
Yes, I do.
Really?
Isn't it easier if you can spread your legs?
It is, but...
Do you take off your pants before you poop?
Listen, listen.
When you pull your pants down,
they fall to your ankles.
They could touch the floor and it's unsanitary.
I wouldn't mind if the floor is clean, but...
Do you take off your pants and hang them up?
- Yes, I do. - That way,
- you can spread your legs. - That's right.
- Really? - I need to spread my legs...
and put my heels up.
That posture is ideal for pooping.
It's a supportive posture.
What would you do when you wear an overall?
- It would be hard. - I would take it off.
- Would you take everything off? - Yes.
Then you would hang it up.
- Yes. - How about your top?
I don't do it outside, but I take off my top at home.
- Really? - Why would you take off your top?
- Some people do that. - Really?
I have a rule.
- Really? - I need to shower right afterward.
- That's right. - That's why I take everything off.
When you are home, you take off all of your clothes,
poop, and pour water over you.
(That's how he stays clean.)
Is that it?
I use a bidet to clean up after I poop.
That's right.
I need water...
from the bottom and top.
He is peculiar.
- It's like a reflex. - He is peculiar.
I have a question.
What do you do if there isn't a hook?
Do you wear your pants like a necklace?
- I fold them up. - He is a host.
He is a host indeed.
- He is good. - I know.
He is a host.
I want to know.
Sometimes, there isn't a hook to hang our belongings.
- What do you do then? - I move to a different stall.
- Really? - I hold it in.
- Really? - You do that if you can.
One time, I went to a rest area...
with a junior comedian.
To pee,
he pulled his pants down to his ankles.
He did that among strangers.
Seriously.
- I was so flustered. - I don't do that.
I was like, "What are you doing?"
You pee that way in kindergarten, right?
It became a habit.
At a men's toilet...
- No way. Does an adult do that? - I am serious.
- That's right. - No way.
I could give you a name!
- Don't give me a name! - When I asked him...
what he was doing, he said, "It's refreshing this way."
The floor is disgusting.
He pulled his pants down to here like kindergartners.
- Are you serious? - I am serious.
People were forced to see his butt.
- I can't believe it. - I was taken aback,
but he said that's simply how he pees.
What was I supposed to say?
(Gu Ra respects his junior comedian's habit.)
Sung Woo got married three years ago.
These days, his 16-year-old wife...
- His 16-year-old wife? - What are you talking about?
What?
His wife is 16 years younger than him.
Despite that, he becomes sullen very often.
There is a big age difference between us.
I asked her, "Who was your heartthrob?"
Who was her heartthrob?
I thought it would be me.
Maybe it was Lee Duke Jean.
For goodness' sake.
You love the drama too much.
They were rivals.
There were two princes.
- Shin Sung Woo and Lee Duke Jean. - That's right.
She didn't care about me.
She liked Seo Taiji and Boys.
Why do you often become sullen?
Throughout the relationship...
and marriage,
her focus was on me.
Now that she has a child,
she doesn't care about me.
- I can't ring the doorbell... - Of course not.
- when I come home. - You have to come in by yourself.
I can't shut the door loudly.
You have to come in by yourself and go to bed.
- That's right. - You can't put down the cup loudly.
- It's like that. - I have been set aside.
- It makes me sad. - It's understandable.
- Seriously. - If you add menopause to that...
It will be a disaster.
I am worried that will happen.
- I told my wife, - It might happen.
"When I leave the house..."
"please wish me a good day."
"This is hard."
I texted her, "I am sullen these days."
"Please wish me a good day."
Have you cried in front of your wife?
- I have done it during a fight. - I see.
- During a fight? - You cry when you are frustrated.
I was frustrated.
Maybe you felt victimized.
Are you losing hair because of your wife?
No, I am not. It's not like that.
Are you sure about that?
It's understandable.
- Seong Jin, you understand. - I understand 100 percent.
When I come home after work,
I want her to look at me.
If she greets me at the door,
I become so touched.
- That's right. - It's common for children...
to greet their dad when he comes home.
However, my children are often asleep...
because I go home too late.
- Celebrities are like that. - I become thankful...
when my wife greets me at the door.
I know it's hard to raise a baby,
- but I want her to say, - It's understandable.
"You are home."
"Hurry up and go to bed." That's all I need.
She doesn't need to talk to me.
I just want a glance.
You just want a glance.
- How about you? - We don't have a child yet.
- I see. - Then it's different.
She runs out to greet me.
Maybe she runs out to hit you.
(Whatever it is, he is happy to be welcomed.)
Recently, I taught my son some greetings.
I taught him "Hello" and "Bye".
I said, "I will get to work."
"I will be back."
When he did that...
(His heart fluttered.)
It's belated,
- but I learned that happiness. - My goodness.
- It hit my heart. - I know what it's like.
I was quite happy that day.
(He is a fool for his son.)
- He completely changed. - I know.
He doesn't have time for music.
Gun Myung, do your in-laws live in Brazil?
Yes, they do.
They immigrated to Brazil.
Her entire family immigrated to Brazil.
Her parents sent her to Korea on a vacation.
- That's when you met her. - She came to Korea...
and took an entrance exam for a university in Korea.
When she got in,
she didn't go back to Brazil.
She said, "I want to stay here."
Then she met me.
- I see. - Does her family live in Sao Paulo?
No, if you take an hour-long flight from SP,
- you reach an island named Vitoria. - You shortened Sao Paulo.
- SP. - It's okay to shorten it.
- It's like a gang name. - It's the same everywhere.
(His in-laws don't live in SP.)
You have a worry every time you visit your in-laws.
The flights alone take 24 hours.
- The flights alone take 24 hours. - That's right.
You have to go to LA first.
Sometimes, I go to Europe or the Middle East first.
When you change the seats from economy...
to business,
the difference in cost is thousands of dollars.
That's right.
I tell my wife, "This is how much it costs."
"If we suffer for 24 hours,"
"we could live like kings in Brazil."
Kings?
"With that kind of money, we can give allowances..."
"to your parents..."
- "and buy good things." - What does your wife say?
At first, my wife agreed to it.
Although the flight was taxing, we used the money...
to give allowances to the family and eat tasty food.
Then we came back to Korea.
- Our minds changed then. - Of course. It must have been hard.
"Let's be sure to fly business class the next time."
Of course.
To fly business class for all connecting flights,
- you will need a lot of money. - It's really expensive.
The next time we go, we have the same debate.
"What should we do?"
- It's a tough decision to make. - It really is.
"Gun Myung, let's just persevere for 24 hours."
You haven't flown business class once.
No, we haven't. We haven't done it once.
If I may give you a suggestion,
why don't the family meet in Mexico?
(They could find a place in the middle.)
We do talk about that.
My sister-in-law lives in the US.
- That's great. - She lives in the US.
- If my in-laws go to LA... - That sounds good.
or Hawaii.
They should do that.
Then we can have fun in Hawaii.
I want to join them.
Why would you join them?
That came out of nowhere.
- It sounds fun. - You have children.
Don't be ridiculous.
How did your in-laws react?
- How did your in-laws react? - They agreed.
- Really? - Soon, we will meet...
- in Hawaii or LA. - That's good.
How many times do you go in a year?
Once in a year is good.
That's good.
Back in the days, you had to take a ferry...
Do you really have to talk about that?
Back in the days, people used beacon fire.
- Back in the days... - All conversations end this way.
In the first World Cup the country joined,
Korea lost to Hungary with a score of 9 to 0.
The trip took more than 30 hours.
- The trip took a month. - That's right.
- That's right. - People took a ferry.
They went on a month-long journey to lose by 9 to 0.
That's right.
Gun Myung,
it's your dream to live in Jeju Island.
- Yes. - That's great.
Jeju Island is nice.
I want to help my in-laws move back to Korea.
My mother-in-law is from Jeju Island.
That's why I went to Jeju Island...
and bought a small house.
It's a small house.
When my in-laws come back,
they could use that house.
I want to move to Jeju Island soon.
Do your in-laws want to move to Korea?
I am tempting them,
but the economy is bad in Brazil right now.
If they sell their properties now,
- they will get half their worth. - That's a problem.
That's why they can't come.
It will take a while for the economy to improve.
However, the country has a new president now.
The country is full of resources.
There is the Amazon.
People can live well...
- thanks to the Amazon. - You are like a local.
(He is like Brazilian.)
Do you have a plan...
for what you will do in Jeju Island?
I have no intention to end my musical career.
- There are many hotels. - That's right.
- In the hotel lobby, - Will you sing?
- I will sing. - It's a good idea.
If I work at three hotels...
- You should work at Jungmun. - If I do that,
I will have enough to make a living.
At Jungmun, the hotels are close to each other.
You can walk around.
- You can walk around. - I can ride a bicycle.
(He can walk or ride a bicycle.)
Gun Myung, you don't fight with your wife often,
but you do fight over caps.
It must be about closing the caps.
Do you close the caps?
- You leave them open, right? - I close the caps.
He is the one who closes the caps.
- Really? - Do you close the caps?
He is upset because his wife leaves them open.
This is what happens.
- She drinks and... - She doesn't fasten the caps.
- She does this. - I see.
When I pick it up, the drink spills.
"Then grab it by the bottle, not the cap."
Your wife says that, right?
- Listen. - Okay.
With some designs, it's easy to grab the bottle.
With tumblers and big bottles,
it's easier to grab the top.
You can't grab the middle.
- You have to hold it. - I mean,
it's not as big as a basketball.
Why wouldn't it work?
- It's just a tumbler. - I'm not saying it doesn't work.
I'm just saying that it's more convenient.
Gu Ra misses...
conflicts like this one.
(Gu Ra misses conflicts like this one.)
I hate it...
when the toilet paper touches the wall.
- It should face me like this. - Right.
- I agree. It has to hang like this. - Right?
It should face my side,
but it always faces the wall.
That's not a problem at all.
I'm also finicky about such things.
- So I make it face me. - Some prefer it facing the wall.
- It's really strange. - I don't like it...
when I tear off toilet paper normally.
It needs a snap.
- Like this? - With a snap?
I need to snap a sheet off.
- I keep doing that until... - Do we have to go this far?
- It needs snaps. - Do we have to go this far?
- I need to feel... - My goodness.
that my snaps are sharp.
I feel defeated when I tear off like this.
- This is... - I need to...
snap it like this.
You know how there's a roll of plastic bag...
in a supermarket?
When I pull a sheet off with a snap, it feels so good.
But sometimes when I pull off one, the roll gets undone.
- It's really embarrassing... - I know.
- when it gets undone. - You need to grab it...
- with two hands and pull. - This talk is embarrassing.
You really are like MC Ding Dong.
He's a joker.
If he gets invited to a show like "Dongchimi",
I think he'll be really popular.
- He'd sympathize... - Gu Ra is complimenting him a lot.
with the ladies on the show.
(Versatile MC Gun Myung)
Seong Jin, I heard you often practice acting when you drive.
Normally, when actors are in a car,
they read the scripts, and their managers drive.
That's the most inconvenient part of not having a manager.
If I drive myself, I can't read the script.
Then I'd be in big trouble.
So I have no choice...
but to record my lines on my phone...
when I have to memorize them.
I have to keep listening to it as I drive.
- Otherwise, I'd be in trouble. - I see.
- I have no other option. - I think...
- it's a good idea. - And...
- You record the others' lines too? - Yes, I do.
If your partner is a woman, do you make it sound like a woman?
That's right.
- Otherwise, he might be confused. - It can be confusing.
- It's the recording of "Two Cops". - "Two Cops"? I see.
Who starred in the drama?
- Seong Jin was in it. - I know that.
This is...
(Seong Jin plays the recording of his lines.)
- Let's listen. - It's of no use.
What's this? Oh, this is what my wife recorded.
(Why is it in a woman's voice?)
You got her help.
You got your wife's help.
She did it for you.
So you recorded with your wife.
- Seong Jin... - We're exchanging lines.
- Are you talking about that? - No.
Why do such symptoms appear, by the way?
My wife is horrible at acting.
But she helped you.
- But she should've done better. - What more do you want?
She should've put more emotion to it.
- You expect so much. - What more do you want?
I think it's a really good idea.
- I have no other choice. - You can memorize lines...
with your eyes closed.
- I have no other choice... - It's a very good idea.
- Since Jong Shin... - I'd like to try that method too.
doesn't read our script, we'll record it and give it to you.
Listen to it in your car before you come.
It's more fun if I don't read it.
- Please listen to it ahead. - It's more fun if I don't read it.
(An earnest request)
What's the movie you starred in recently?
I'm just asking out of curiosity.
We haven't seen you in a movie for a long while.
- What's the most recent one? - Since "Break Out"...
- I need to look it up myself also. - You need to look it up?
- You don't know? - I have no idea.
- Really? - I have no idea.
- Which movie is it? - It's been more than five years.
Which one is the most recent movie you were in?
What was it?
- The movie you were in. - Why would you ask me?
- The most recent one you were in. - The most recent movie...
is probably "Fists of Legend".
- "Fists of Legend"? - I see.
- The one with Hwang Jung Min? - I think you're right.
Shooting a movie was my daily routine.
- I used to shoot one every day. - I know.
- But now it's become my dream. - In the early days...
Being in a movie is my dream.
Come on.
It's not that I'm avoiding it.
I've been suppressing my burning desire,
and I'm loaded with acting skills.
Please cast me just once.
I'll make your movie a hit.
I'll be really good at it.
(Burning passion for movies)
You might be cast for variety shows only at this rate.
(He might be cast for variety shows only at this rate.)
Gun Myung,
I hear that you begin your morning with a dog sound.
There are many musical actors...
who are like this.
When they wake up in the morning, they make this sound.
(Whining)
They check if their vocal cords work well.
- Vocalization... - If you can make a clear sound,
then it's good for the day.
But when you wake up in the morning and your voice...
is like this,
if it's not clear,
then you'd be in big trouble for the show you're in.
- It's to test your vocal. - You have to slowly warm up...
- since the morning. - You do that as soon as you're up?
When I open my eyes in the morning...
(Gun Myung becomes a dog as soon as he wakes up.)
Doesn't your vocal cord work after some time?
If you check it right after you're up...
There are days when it works as soon as I'm awake.
Then that means...
there would be no problem in singing for that day.
If it works well in the morning, does it last the whole day?
For viewers who just tuned in...
- might get the wrong idea. - It could last a day.
He also made a dog sound.
- For viewers... - He's trying hard to be funny.
It seems like it.
- He might be invited to many shows. - He's trying really hard.
- He might not be in a movie at all. - He wants to be like Kwon Oh Joong?
- He's doing a good job. - But that's my dream.
- He's trying to be like Oh Joong. - He might have less chances now.
That's not true.
Why did he suddenly talk about that?
I have to shoot a movie with Tae Hyun.
(Seong Jin's ambition)
It's a must for those who sing to check vocal cords in the morning.
Right. The condition...
of your vocal cords can determine how the day goes.
For how many days in a week do your vocal cords work well?
I'm just asking out of curiosity.
- What's the average? - For how many days?
It's around 80 percent.
- 80 percent? - 80 percent? That's a relief.
If I perform for two days in a row,
- That's right. - my vocal cords don't work well.
They don't work well the day after you drank.
For days like those, I warm up my vocal cords for a long time.
Kim Jong Seo always warms up for 2 to 3 hours.
He does that every time he has to perform.
Then he sings just for two minutes.
- It's for those two minutes. - Of course.
- He warms up for 3 to 4 hours... - Those 2 minutes are important.
and performs for just two minutes.
Seong Jin has prepared a lot for today.
I hear that your son's dream is to become a magician.
You will show us the magic...
- you learned from your son? - Really?
Right. Yes. I've prepared it.
I've prepared a lot in case I can't talk well.
- Do you want to see it? - Are you saying...
that you won't do it since you did well?
- He got enough airtime? - Right.
- Should I show you? - I think you can.
It felt like that.
It was as if he was saying, "Do I have to show magic tricks also?"
There are many kids who dream to become a content creator.
They show magic tricks also.
(A magic show on Radio Star?)
You have no idea, right?
Yes.
(Novice magicians were out of their elements.)
(Hyena-like people frantically tried to find out the secret.)
(Even professional magicians fail to show their tricks here.)
(And you're trying to show magic on Radio Star?)
My son also has his own YouTube channel.
- He made one. - I know. Kids do that a lot.
It's their style.
- I'll show an easy one. - Okay.
- Let's see. - This... This is...
- Can I guess it? - Guess what?
- The secret? - No, no.
- You can't. - No?
- Is there a pigeon in there? - So you know what this is?
There are two cards.
All right.
Why would you watch me from side like a kid?
If you watch a magician from side...
Then you should've moved your seat.
- Go up there and do it. - You can't watch my hands.
- It's because we can't see him. - Why are you yelling at him?
- I have five of clubs... - All magicians are like that.
- and king of hearts. - Okay.
- Okay. - Five of clubs and king of hearts.
You're quite sloppy.
But... Really?
- It's okay. - He learned it from his kid.
With the five of clubs card...
If I send it to the back... Is there anyone at the back?
- There's no one. - If I send it to the back...
What card am I holding with my left hand?
- King of hearts. - It must be king of hearts.
(The card in his left hand must be king of hearts.)
But the king of hearts is in my right hand.
Did you exchange it from behind?
Show it to us.
- That's amazing. - Shall I show it again?
Don't look at me too closely.
- I'm getting nervous. - Wait a minute.
Why am I getting nervous?
This is what we're good at.
How can a magician be like that?
He doesn't want us to look too closely.
- All right. - There are two cards.
- Do you want us to squint our eyes? - This is king of hearts.
- Now... - This is five of clubs.
King of hearts and five of clubs.
- King of hearts and 5 of clubs. - King of hearts and 5 of clubs.
He's confident about that.
- Here I go. - King of hearts.
Here I go. I sent king of hearts to the back.
- Then you'll have... - What's my left hand holding?
- Five of clubs. - Pardon?
It needs to be five of clubs, right?
But it's in my right hand.
- You must've exchanged it. - This is magic.
- This is magic. - Is there something in your sleeve?
Don't try to figure it out.
If you do...
- If you guess the trick, - I think I got it.
that means you're a kid.
- I got it. - That means you're a kid!
You're the type of people that magicians hate the most.
- I got it too. - You're all such kids.
Stop it.
I'll quit magic.
I quit. I give up.
- Tell us the trick before you quit. - I can't do it.
- I quit. - He can't reveal the trick.
- This won't do. - I won't reveal it.
- I won't reveal it. - The card is in here.
- It's in there. - We have to guess which one it is?
- When I open the lid, - He's showing another magic trick.
what should be in there? A card, right?
Ta-da.
A card, right?
Ta-da.
(Ta-da.)
(Proud of himself)
Where did the card go?
- I figured it out again. - I got this one too.
- It must be in there. - Stop it!
(There are two layers.)
(Stop it! You're like kids!)
You're destroying the innocence of kids.
My son is going to watch this.
- Right. - But this one was so predictable.
- So I... - You should've done it over there.
learned this...
Can somebody clean this up?
I learned it in a short period of time.
- That's nice. - It's the entry-level magic.
There you go.
We should keep quiet since his kid is going to watch it.
We have to act like we don't know.
- Two-layered dish is trending now. - Your pride...
"Two-layered dish"?
Ki Joon, I hear you're lavishing your affection...
- on your turtle these days. - Right, he mentioned it last time.
- Sorry? - Your turtle.
Right. I'm doing my best to...
It's said that you named your turtle without thinking much.
They're Ggeobuk, Geobuk, and Ggobuk.
- Ggeobuk, Geobuk, and Ggobuk. - What did he say?
They're Ggeobuk, Geobuk, and Ggobuk.
One of them got a proper name.
- They're Geobuk, Ggobuk, and... - Ggobul.
- It's Ggeobuk, Geobuk, and Ggobuk. - There are three.
Ggeobuk,
- Geobuk, - Geobuk.
- and Ggobuk. - Ggobuk.
Aren't you confused also?
But you named them wholeheartedly.
I was going to name them with the liquor brands.
- Liquor brands. - But they were too obvious.
I was going to name them Royal, Ballantine's, and Blue.
- They are too obvious. - But they sound classy.
What's the fun part of keeping them as pets?
- They stay still. - I don't need to do much.
I don't have to clean up their mess.
I only need to clean their tank once a month.
I think this is the charm of keeping turtles.
They'll get to watch our funeral as they live longer.
Of course. They live longer than humans.
But that's for sea turtles.
- Sea turtles? - I see.
They live for over 200 years.
- Oh, the small ones die younger. - Yes. They...
- live for about 20 years. - I see.
For 20 years.
- I see. - Do you also talk to them?
Sometimes I try to talk to it when I'm drunk.
I see.
That reminds me of a scene from "Rocky" somehow.
- Why? - When Rocky comes home,
he talks to them while feeding them.
"How was your day? You must be hungry. Enjoy it."
- Really? - Yes. The scene came to my mind.
- You don't do that, do you? - No.
I say things like that though.
"It's time to eat."
(It's time to eat.)
Gun Myung, did go to nightclubs every night when you were single?
(Was Gun Myung a nightclub lover when he was single?)
You have gone on a tour of night clubs across in Korea.
I became a musical actor because I liked music.
So I went to a nightclub very often.
Where did you go back then?
There were many famous places like Odyssey.
- The one near Gangnam Station? - Yes.
Oh, you went to Gangnam.
I also went to Vivace and Lady City in Itaewon.
Can you still do the dance you did back then?
Well, this dance was quite popular back then.
- He's good. - That's good.
- Show us more. - You can also do... For example...
(Gun Myung, a former night club lover)
He still remembers the dance move.
Changing directions like this. I did dances like this.
He's good.
- However... - Was that your only dance move?
Can't you dance hustle?
- Hustle... - It was for your generation.
I'm only two years older than you.
That's ridiculous. What are you saying?
- Gosh. Seriously. - So...
when I went on a trip,
I went to a nightclub in that area.
The hottest one.
When I did the dance moves I did in Seoul,
- the DJs looked at me. - Right.
"What's that move?"
"What kind of dance is that?"
Have you not tried the line dance called vertex dance with Seong Jin?
(Kim Soo Ro, the vertex)
(The vertex dance was very popular in 2006.)
(Seong Jin)
We haven't done it together.
- That's not how we met. - He has a different style.
Can't the two of you do the vertex dance?
- No. - No.
We can only make a straight line.
- There's no dot. - No dot?
We need one more person.
- The vertex? - Yes.
- We need the vertex. - I see.
- You can't make the formation. - Right. There's no vertex.
There's no vertex.
- They need Soo Ro as a vertex. - Exactly.
The two of you are useless without him.
(The two of you are useless without him.)
In the past, Sung Woo couldn't bear...
the sight of his junior actors who are rude.
That's true. In the past,
when my junior actors didn't greet me,
I got angry at them.
But I fixed that problem at once...
10 years ago.
- Really? - How?
Jun Sang...
can't stand it either.
(He fixed it with Jun Sang's help.)
One time, we performed in Daegu.
And when we went there,
we met the cast members of another musical play.
- There was another team there. - That's right.
We run into them at the entrance of the hotel.
They saw Jun Sang... I was behind him.
- But they... - They passed you by?
passed us by without saying hello.
Jun Sang turned around and said,
"Hey, guys. You know me, right?"
They said yes.
Jun Sang said, "Let's say hi to each other when we meet."
"Listen. I'll go back out and walk in again."
"Why don't you guys go out again, so we can say hi to each other?"
So we all went back where we were...
and try it again.
- He talked to them nicely. - He tried to ask nicely.
He always tries to ask nicely.
However, I was so embarrassed. I was like this.
Did you walk in again too?
- I did that too. - You did?
- He had no choice. - Isn't that weird?
- He had no choice. - Like this...
- If Sung Woo hesitated, - Right.
Jun Sang would've been embarrassed.
So he had no choice.
Which one of Jun Sang's junior actors does that now?
Park Gun Hyung is doing that now.
He disciplines his junior actors.
Park Gun Hyung? Right.
- You found a good successor. - That's right.
They just say what they think is right.
"Let's say hit to each other."
They tell their junior actors to show respect.
- And they don't force anything. - Of course.
- Right. - It's nice.
Seong Jin moved to Yangpyeong last year.
Yangsuri or Yangpyeong?
Yangpyeong. It's right next to Yangsuri.
- It's where there's... - Soo Ro lives there too.
If you go 3km further from Soo Ro's house,
- there's Sonagi Village. - I know.
It's a tranquil village.
- In Suneung-ri. - That's right. Suneung-ri.
There's also a really good barbecue restaurant there.
They make great seasoned raw beef and beef sashimi.
(Exclaiming)
And boiled chicken with cordyceps that he talked about is so amazing.
You can experience a whole new taste in Yangpyeong.
- Did you call Sin Gu over there? - It's nice.
Sin Gu went to the same high school as my father.
My father has passed away, so whenever I see Sin Gu,
I feel like I meet my father.
One day, I went to the restaurant I told you about.
I sent him a photo of beef sashimi...
saying, "There's a nice restaurant in my neighborhood."
- Did he see the photo? - A few days later, he called me...
and said, "Where is this place? Let's meet up there."
He tried beef sashimi there, and he liked it very much.
He suggested we should go to another restaurant...
in my neighborhood next time. So we're going to eat...
- boiled chicken with cordyceps. - I see.
(The next menu is boiled chicken with cordyceps.)
"Kang Seong Jin, beef sashimi". "Kang Seong Jin, cordyceps".
- These will be searched the most. - Just these two places?
He's promoting so many things.
What else?
There's an amazing spicy seafood stew restaurant there too.
- By the way... - I'll go there with him too.
The spicy seafood stew there is so good. It's on the lakeside.
I haven't been there yet.
- I'm going to go there next time. - It's incredible.
All the restaurants there are nice.
- Let me join you. - Sure.
- Spicy seafood stew sounds good. - Let's all go there.
Why don't you all move to my neighborhood?
Let's live there together.
(Let's just all live there.)
- Gun Myung, you... - Yes?
must be close to Bae Seong Woo and Park Ho San.
Yes. There are same age actors who still perform on stage.
Park Ho San, Bae Seong Woo, myself,
Lee Seok Jun, and some other actors.
These days, the actors who are the same age as me...
have been very successful.
One day, I was walking on the street.
And I saw Seong Woo smiling in the poster...
on a bus.
I felt so happy for Seong Woo. And then I went to Daehangno.
I ran into Seong Woo there.
I said hi...
and said, "I just saw your poster on a bus. Are you happy?"
He said, "Of course, I'm happy."
He smirked like he always does and left.
I was so happy to see him like that.
I was so happy that my friend, who went through...
all sorts of hardship, showed different sides of him to people.
Ho San once said in an interview...
that when he was in prison,
he worked really hard.
He was asked why.
I thought he actually went to prison.
- "So was he a model prisoner?" - Exactly.
- The viewers might be surprised. - "Was he released early?"
He's talking about a drama.
- Yes. In his drama. - Tell the drama title.
- "Prison Playbook". - "Prison Playbook".
It sounds like he actually went to prison.
- "Prison Playbook". He said, - Let's let him finish.
"I thought if I gave a good performance in that drama,"
"my junior actors who perform in theaters at Daehangno..."
- "would be cast for dramas." - Of course.
- That's why he worked so hard. - He's great.
Just like Ho San said,
many directors and staff have an eye on theater actors...
these days.
- Many of them are cast. - That's right.
- That's true. - It's so good...
to see that.
In fact,
Gun Myung, you are a top star in musical plays.
But do you also want to play in movies or dramas?
- Of course, I do. - Of course.
You and Seong Jin could co-star in the same movie.
Speaking of which, when you edit the show,
please put his story and mine together.
Okay. Were you thinking about that?
I'm afraid my story might be forgotten.
And I don't want film crew members...
- to cast only Gun Myung. - I get it.
- Film crew members might say, - Is that what you were thinking?
"Kang Seong Jin retired and left Seoul."
- Exactly. - "I guess he won't work anymore."
- Right. - "He moved to Yangpyeong."
He shouldn't tell too many stories about Yangpyeong.
Some might say, "Isn't he the one who's good at magic tricks?"
That's right.
"He was so good at it." It's possible.
"Let's just go to Yangpyeong to eat beef sashimi."
(Let's go to Yangpyeong to eat beef sashimi.)
You are watching a high-end music program,
Radio Star.
Today's theme is for those who have a lot of life experience.
"The Song That Shows..."
"My Life Experience".
First, shall we hear the song that Seong Jin chose?
("Even Today Goes" by Bae Gi Seong)
Is it the theme song of "Attack the Gas Station"?
It was 20 years ago.
You can't seem to let go of this movie.
- I won't let it go since it's... - That's good.
the most meaningful movie in my life,
and it brought me fame.
There was a sequel of this movie.
- That's right. - I wasn't cast for the sequel.
And it wasn't successful.
So I don't care.
(He's self-centered.)
Shall we hear Seong Jin sing "Even Today Goes"?
("Even Today Goes" performed by Kang Seong Jin)
(After the storms of life)
(I became tamed)
(There was a time in Kang Seong Jin's life...)
(when he was brave.)
(From acting to running a side dish business,)
(he kept moving forward with no fear in youth.)
(No matter how hard I try)
(I can't stop time)
(As many years passed by, his voice became richer and deeper.)
(I must endure even when I feel like crying)
(Even when people find out the secret of my magic trick,)
(I must endure.)
(Smiling)
(That's how life is)
(Seong Jin described his life through the song.)
He's good.
You can relate to the lyrics, right?
It's practically my story.
Right. "I endure again as always."
This song...
can also be our director Sung Woo's story.
He endured so much.
"I endure again as always."
He sings really well.
- He's good. - He's good.
Now shall we hear the song that Gun Myung chose?
- My gosh. - He's determined to impress people.
("What If" by Noel)
"What If" by Noel.
- Why did you choose this song? - My goodness.
When I appeared on "King of Mask Singer",
- Oh, right. - my competitor sang this song.
It was Kim Yeon Woo.
- You competed against Yeon Woo? - So...
- You had such a strong competitor. - Really?
(His performance was so powerful that no one could beat him.)
There was no way I could beat him.
I was shocked. He was incredible.
This means you will beat Seong Jin.
(What?)
It seems to me that he wants to beat Seong Jin.
Seong Jin sang the song that suits his style...
especially his hairstyle.
That's true.
I chose the right song. My song choice was great.
Shall we hear Gun Myung sing "What If"?
("What If" performed by Lee Gun Myung)
(What if we)
(We?)
(Were a little younger, how would we be now?)
(Our eyesight worsened as we aged.)
(I can't live without healthy juice.)
(But my healthy vocal cords are still alive.)
He's good.
(His hopeful voice...)
(helps Gu Ra overcome his midlife crisis.)
(The cry for all the middle-aged men in the world)
(We are not afraid of a midlife crisis anymore!)
(The song made everyone feel like they become younger.)
Bravo.
- The song has such high notes. - That's right.
The lyrics are great.
- "What if..." - It's a great song.
You can imagine a lot of good things in hypothetical situations.
(That is so true!)
Today's theme was "Cheerful Middle-Aged Men".
Your eyesight became weak as you've aged,
and you take medicine now...
and underwent surgery. But that doesn't matter.
If you're cheerful and charming, that's what it matters.
We, the MCs, will also be back cheerfully like them.
We will say goodbye here. See you next week.
- Please. - Please.
(See you again next week!)
("Want" by Taemin)
